COE of CZ

[jille]

Does anyone know what the coefficient of expansion of cubic zirconia is?
I'm adding them to glass pendants, I have read about the technique in 2 places, and it works for me but i know someone along the way will say it's not possible and eventually disaster will strike, so I need the proof so i can tell them what the COE is ???
thanks

All I've been able to find is this, which gives the coefficient as 8x10^-6/C (so a COE of 80); this seems to agree.

There are a few hints around of a COE of 10x10^-6 as well for zirconium oxide, but I can't be sure that was for cubic.

thank you Peter, my glass is COE90 so it should be close to 90 I'd have thought.
